Up until recently, If you wanted to have the taste of a Halal McDonald’s you would have to travel to a Muslim country like Egypt, Turkey or UAE to fulfil that craving. I remember when I went to Dubai I brought back 5 cheeseburgers for my family and everyone was so happy. It’s strange how these little £1 burgers can bring so much joy.
Anyway, there’s no longer any more reason to travel 1000 miles because there’s been an explosion of Halal Burger Joints that offer burgers that tastes identical to a McDonald’s cheeseburger or Big Mac.
Here’s a list of places where you can find halal McDonald’s like burgers in no particular order.

Bims
The original and first restaurant in London to introduce Halal McDonald’s style burgers. I still remember when I first blogged about this place, the hype was crazy, do crazy that Bims had to shut down for 2 weeks to re-fit their kitchen to cope with demand!
CHICO’S Flame Grilled Chicken
From one of the owners of Fat Boyz comes Chicos (a restaurant that my wife named!). Although a little more expensive than other places that do the same McDonalds burgers
Address: 349-351 Barking Rd, East Ham, London E6 1LA
Fat Cafe
The cafe has just introduced a range of McDonald’s style burgers to their new Menu. Tastes just like a proper McDonald’s burger!
Munch Box
Although the burgers here are not 100% the same as a McDonald’s burger they are very close and make it their own style, rather than imitating McDonald’s.
Mak Burgers
I’ve not been here but thought I’d give some love to South London. They look similar to McDonald’s burgers and I heard they taste the same!
3 Mitcham Lane London SW16 6LG
Five Bros
Another new spot. Not been to this one either.
165 Globe Road, Bethnal Green, London E2 0LJ
Outside of London
The Tasty Burger Co.
Address: 431 Oxford Rd, Reading RG30 1HD
SlamBurger
Birmingham, London and Luton
They have a spot in London as well. I had one once when they first opened but I didn’t rate it.
Burger Base
Address: 190 Evington Rd, Leicester LE2 1HN

Sorry but what about showing some love in North West London? Most of these places are in East London which is miles away!
Well you can always move to east London which has everything rather than living in a area which only has lahmachun
